Relatively Finer but Uniformly Mixed Rations Permit Effective Bunk Management: A Farmlot Covert

This article discusses that as long as mixed rations are highly uniformly prepared, relatively finer diet particles should permit easily manageable feed bunks and healthy chewing and rumen ecology particularly in growing and finishing feedlot cattle.
